The children's Longfellow,: Illustrated

Longfellow has been fitly called the childrens poet. Many of his poems have from their first appearance been favorites with youthful readers, and they have been widely used in the schools, but heretofore there has been no comprehensive collection of the poems best adapted for childrens reading. It is believed, therefore, that this book will find a ready welcome at the hands of young people and their parents. The poems here printed have been divided into groups which follow, in a general way, the arrangement in the Cambridge Edition of Longfellow s Poems. With three exceptions, each poem is reprinted in its entirety. In the case of Evangeline, The Song of Hiawatha, and The Courtship of Miles Standish it has been necessary to make a selection of one or two complete divisions from each. Boston
